Hello everyone!

Basically, we got an RFE for evidence of having met within the last 2 years of filling for the petition, and I needed to properly fill out form G-325A.

I'm sure we wouldn't have gotten an RFE had I been using visa journey as much as I am now! Only weeks after I sent the petition did I realize how amazing this site is!

We've covered the evidence part of it and I'm filling out the form again *Using visa journey's example forms* of course, but I'm unsure what to put for my employment. I'm a Freelance graphic artist and have been for a few years now but I don't know when I exactly started and because it's freelance I don't have an employer/address for it. I have moved so even if I did put my house address would I have to use 2 lines, fill one out for one address and another line for the old address?

I don't know what I did wrong on this form lasttime because I was in a rush and didin't get to make a copy of it *will not be making that mistake again* but it could have been this question.

Any help for what I should say for this question would be great!

Thank you so much!

Louise

Hmm... This is gonna be a tough one. These are things you need to know for full disclosure purposes. Remember that once you're approved they will want a letter from your employer stating how long you've been employed with them and what your salary is. Then you need the bank info to prove it. So hopefully there's some other freelance people that can guide you, but it's probably best to call Uscis and ask their assistance to be sure. Good luck.

If he is freelance, he is more than likely self-employed and therefore would need to follow the guidelines of the I-134 for the self-employed.

You don't need to know exactly when you started. Can you at least think of a month and year close to it? I'm not sure about differing addresses for the same employment. This form is finicky and gave me some hassles to, but mine were different.

I simply put Self-Employed without an address, then listed occupation and dates. I had no issues. If you really want to put an address there, just put your current home address.

Just put your best guess as to the month and year you began to freelance.

Remember that once you're approved they will want a letter from your employer stating how long you've been employed with them and what your salary is. Then you need the bank info to prove it.

You do not need a letter from your employer if you are self-employed. There is no employer to get a letter from. You need your tax transcripts to prove income for the affidavit of support when self-employed.

Oh okay good idea! Of course it makes sense lol - Did you leave the address section blank or did you put N/A or?

Thank you for your help!

The G325a doesn't have an address section for employment.

It does http://www.visajourn...Form-G-325A.pdf it says Full Name and Address of Employer

For crying out loud. I KNOW what it says. Did you read what I wrote?

To be clear, "city and country" or city and State for the USA is sufficient for an employer address on a G325a. When self employed, simply self employed with an occupation in the next field is sufficient. If you want belt and suspenders, enter the home address or just "Self Employed from home".

There is no special field or "section" for the address of an employer.
